• Key Concepts: 
  Valuation level is a feature of SAP Inventory Accounting that allows users to assign different values to the same material. This is useful for tracking the value of inventory over time, as well as for creating reports that compare the value of different materials. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use the valuation level feature, users must first create a valuation class in the system. This class will be used to assign different values to the same material. Once the valuation class has been created, users can assign a value to each material in the system. This value can then be used in reports and other analyses. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a valuation class, it is important to consider how often the values will need to be updated. If the values are expected to change frequently, it may be beneficial to create multiple classes with different values. This will allow users to easily switch between different values without having to manually update each material.
